I think people are getting carried away here (assuming any form of botting is NOT grounds for immediate ban, if it is then consider the rest of this comment irrelevant).
The better argument and complaint here is that the accused is given no chance to redeem himself. He recieves an email concerning suspension and is then banned. No warning, nothing. I'm sorry, but that is rediculous considering the amount of money and time he put into the game. 3000+ hours? Gone without a second thought. Makes me happy I have decided to stop playing WoW for Oblivion. Blizzard's actions here are flat-out un-fair.
